Ware Garage (Renault Dealers, just before the A10 viaduct) and the associated and cunningly monikered "Used Car Centre" have closed. This means that there is a potential huge swath of of brown field development between this site and the old Alfa Romeo dealers (Desira) divided by a few units between the two sites, which include Sam Centre (car parts), Roy Carter (car mechanics) - don't leave! - et al. How long before more "stunning" "luxury" apartments are built?

Or perhaps there is an opportunity for a garage of a higher class make of cars? Cars that actually work maybe?

I see the website has been taken down too. Retirement maybe? The owner(s) were getting on..

Oi Oi, steady on, we've got a Renault Scenic and couldn't be happier with it, except people seem to keep dinging it in car parks :evil:

if it wasn't made of paper maybe it wouldn't get dinged?

:)

Joking. Renault still make the most fun small hot hatches around.

Although their current effort in F1 is not exactly doing much to help their reputation!

The mechanics from Ware Garages are setting up on their own next door at the Back of Taylor Trading Estate (behind SAM centre).

They are trading as Ware Garage Services I believe and are opening on Monday 14th September.
